South America has been a favourite amongst Cheshire wine lovers and beyond for many years now and Argentina is very much ahead of the game with quality wines at fantastic prices and Chile remains a regular choice too, however we are now seeing great wines from all around this incredible wine region.

Join us in The Tasting Room at Corks Out Alderley Edge to taste some fantastic wines from South America – of course we’ll include a Malbec for you and we’ll be serving sharing boards from Taste at Corks Out for you to enjoy with some of your wines for the evening.

What's included

There is so much more to South America than just Malbec. This beautiful wine producing region offers an amazing range of wines and we’re delighted to be hosting this entertaining evening in The Tasting Room at Corks Out Alderley Edge where you’ll try five of the incredible South American wines the store has available to buy.

We’ll be pairing some of our chosen wines with delicious sharing boards from Taste at Corks Out allowing you to appreciate how food and wine pairing works too. If you love the wines enough that you’d like to take some home, the team at Corks Out will be on hand afterwards to help you choose and if you prefer arrange for collection or delivery at a later date*. So join us from 7.30pm on Friday 2nd March to learn some fun facts about the South American wine regions and discover more about the wines themselves.

*Subject to availability – delivery charges may apply.

Menu

Sharing boards will be served during the evening to enjoy with our wine selection.
